30 Must-See Architecture Documentaries

As Oscar season approaches, Arch Daily has gathered a list of "30 of the best Architecture Documentaries which will provoke, intrigue and beguile in 2013."

Who knew that 30 documentary films about architecture even existed? From the well known, like My Architect, the Academy Award nominated personal portrait of Louis Kahn, to the lesser known, like Loos Ornamental, which features still shots of 27 of Adolf Loos's buildings, Arch Daily's list covers feature films, short documentaries, made for TV documentaries, and TV series.

The list is just not limited to recent releases, such as REM, a film directed by Koolhaas’ son, Tomas, that comes out this year, but goes back as far as The World of Buckminster Fuller (1974).
